We are working with forces and higher education partners to develop qualifications for other ranks.

In June 2017, the College engaged with key stakeholder groups, to get feedback on the draft high-level curricula for the qualifications that officers (Sergeants – Chief Superintendents) would be supported to achieve upon promotion in order to be confirmed in rank. This raised a number of queries, especially around viability and implementation.

As a result of further feedback from PFEW, PSAEW and NPCC, the College is proposing to consult further in Spring 2018, on the original proposals for mandated professional development with qualifications attached at each rank. The proposed consultation will provide more detail on the potential content, options around delivery and funding models, and timing. Further information will be available on the College website in due course.
